On motorcycles and fear

A bit of brotherly advice requested.
Help me decide if I'm being phobic, or wise?

A guy I started dating wants me to ride on the back of his motorcycle like the one below. While I'm flattered, and want him to be happy, I'm also as terrified as a rabbit in a foxhole. I look at that giant motorcycle and all I can see is myself back in the ER due to another motorcycle accident, just like a decade ago. (I got off easy with multiple fractures to my tibia and fibia.)

What's curious is that if it was a smaller bike I wouldn't be so dang scared. Then again, if I wasn't a bit smitten, I'd find it easy to tell him no.

So, am I courting death by getting on this thing?
